What Happened to My Hopes and Dreams

By dianes

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

What happened to my hopes and dreams, Have I put them in the past, Going on and doing what I need to, No choice of looking back. I had so many hopes and dreams, So grand and full of life, Why did I let them all end, When I became someone’s wife. All I ever wanted was a family, A husband and some kids, A house with a picket fence, A dog for the kids to play with. Well, I have a husband, I have some kids, I had some dogs, But a family this is not. Just like they say, A house is just a place to live, A home is a place filled with love, A home this is not. I never wanted material things, Emotion always ruled, Fill my house with love, Emotions gone unfulfilled. It is not from not trying, I tried so hard to succeed, But without everyone helping, I failed in life’s dream. I just don’t understand it, When it doesn’t cost a thing, Why can’t I find the love, Only heartbreak stole my hopes and dreams. Written February 4th, 2002 © on Feb 04 2002 02:59 AM PST   18 • 0 • 1
